For quite some time, I have been struggling to pinpoint the source of my artistic research, but now I think I might have found it in the movement of Post-Naturalism ie. the study of the origins, habitats, and evolution of organisms that have been intentionally and heritably altered with genetic engineering, and the influence of human culture and biotechnology on evolution. There is an interesting article in the BBC Future column investigating Post-Naturalism, finding both its postive and negative perspective. (Worth a read - https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190502-why-the-post-natural-age-could-be-strange-and-beautiful )

 

In the meantime, do remember to check in on my Seasonal Harvest shop for Genetic Engineered Pots. I will be starting work for the Spring Harvest soon with new ideas of Genome alterations to make super pots. Stay tune for exciting works in June!
